Μικρή Μπανάνα

Mikri Banana sits beside Banana Beach on the southern side of Skiathos, reached on foot from the main beach area. There is no dedicated parking at the cove itself, so visitors use parking serving Banana Beach and continue along an informal coastal path. The final approach has uneven ground and soft sand, with no step-free route. Travel toward Banana Beach by local bus or boat where available, then allow time for the walk. The beach is always open with no fixed hours, and daylight visits are practical. June through September offers the warmest and driest conditions for swimming, while cooler and windier weather is likely outside summer. The shore is sand with a sandy bottom and clear water, usually calm in summer. Entry is straightforward in settled conditions, but there is no lifeguard service, so swim within personal limits and watch for boats. Sun exposure is high on the open sand and shade is limited, so bring a hat, sunscreen, and a light shelter if needed. There are no toilets, showers, bins, sunbeds, or food and drink service. Bring sufficient water and snacks, protect valuables, and take rubbish away. Space is limited, so arrive early in high summer for a comfortable spot. Typical stays last a few hours for swimming and sunbathing. Keep swimwear handy for the trails and respect adjacent areas and local signs. Move carefully on uneven sections and wear sturdy footwear already noted for the path. Check sea state before entering and stay within comfortable depth, as no assistance is available. Pack out all food wrappers and other waste because no bins are provided at the shore.
